Our current unit is a dance unit! We have been practicing different line dances, learning some new dances through a Just Dance game, and students have been creating their own 32 count line dances. Along with this, we have been learning about the different bones in our body. Review information for the bones can be found by clicking "Assignments".

In 3rd-8th Grade we will be starting our flag football unit. If weather permits, we will be going outside so if students want to bring a sweatshirt to PE they can and remember to wear athletic shoes to school on PE days in case we do go outside. Any review material will be posted under the "Assignments" tab at the top of the website.

I'm excited to start the 2017-2018 school year! This year in PE we will be playing some team sports, individual sports, and participating in different fitness activities. We will be trying some new activities and it should be a fun year.

Reminder to 6-8th grade students to bring deodorant (non-spray), their PE uniforms, and PE shoes.
